A 92-year-old has become the oldest person in Britain to ever sit a GCSE exam.
Derek Skipper, from Orwell in Cambridgeshire, said it doesn’t matter ‘two hoots’ what his results are but he is hoping for a level four or five when grades are released in August.
The former RAF radar engineer decided to sit the GCSE to challenge himself to with a modern exam paper and to outdo a family friend who struggled to pass the test.
The process has seen Derek not only master new maths skills but also YouTube, which he had to use in order to complete the course which was run by The Cam Academy Trust.
